Often we received gifts from Taiwanese friends their local famous pastry - Sun Pastry / Sun Cake which are nicely packed into gift boxes.

What to do with additional Green Apples? Ling chopped out some cubes of green apples, added some raisins, cinnamon powder and Voila ~~~~ !

That's your apple strudel fillings.

She scooped the fillings and spread over the ready made puff pastry. The delicious apple strudel ready in about 20 minutes.

1st Bento @ Work ~~~ 自制"爱"心早餐 ~~~

Time flies, 4 months "honeymoon" at home and now back to work (a 5day week  short term job).

How to beat Monday Blues? ~~~~ Made a very simple bento to work. (cheer up myself)

Bought a small packet of "purple" bread from neighbourhood bakery, it's vanilla & chocolate cream spread and it taste nice.

Using one of my favourite bento boxes - Little Twin Stars - Manged to add "little hearts" using of nori on the bread, added a piece of snowskin green tea mooncake made by Diana and some biscuits for tea break.  The snowskin green tea mooncake taste nice, not too sweet.
